243 million gallons is being reported which means the number is probably significantly higher. Definitely going to be short and long-term consequences requiring substantial and remedial changes and how the Bay's ecosystem is being managed. But we all know that Virginia and Maryland don't really give a s*** so the chances of those changes actually occurring are probably in the neighborhood of zero to nil. It's unfathomable we can allow some of this country's most beautiful natural resources to be destroyed for greed and utter incompetency.
